Give it a try and watch this amount grow! Pastor's Corner by Rev. David M. Jahn Christ is Risen! Alleluia! It feels great to say those words and to ponder that great truth. In fact, every Sunday when we gather together as God’s people, we hope to bless God with our praise, thanks, and worship, but we also hope to proclaim and to hear the truth about God. I don’t think it’s possible to be reminded too often about all that God is and all that the Holy Spirit has done for us. DLM Update I have moved offices that is; you can’t get rid of me that easily When people ask me what it is I do, I say that I am the “people” person; the person who should know everyone and have an idea about what is going on. As I’ve grown into my position, I’ve found that I spend a lot of time in the front office and like the “face time” it gives me with all of you. Thus, I’ve moved my digs to the front office, so come say hello! Council Minutes An update from the Council Meeting... Council News - Congregational Life May 3rd is the BIG CLEAN and we figured it should be the BIG GET TOGETHER too! Why not make a day of it? After you help with the BIG CLEAN, you can join us for the BIG CHILI CONTEST and a BIG GAME FEST. (We might even have a BIG EUCHRE TOURNAMENT not to mention, a few BIG PRIZES!) A Sincere Thank You Perhaps you set up a table or rinsed a dish or brought a casserole…..As we reached out to the members of the Weiss family and the Kopp family, you were the warmth and caring that is All Saints. As we hosted the Agape meal, you stepped up again. Perhaps you moved chairs or tossed a salad or carted stacks of dirty dishes to the kitchen. You served with a glad heart and your gladness spread to all around you. For myself and on behalf of Congregational Life, please accept my sincere thanks.
